Robbie Williams considers quitting music
Posted: 31 Aug '06, 14:13
MusicRooms.net has reported that Robbie Williams is considering quitting music, stating that his career has become a "monster".
"I don't see me singing again," said the, um, singer. "It's a question of what I want and where I want to be."
He'll now spend the next 18 months deliberating over his future, apparently. Williams' new single, the absolutely awful 'Rudebox' - really, it's probably the worst thing we've heard on the radio all year - is out on September 4.
Williams added: "Can I live without radio picking my song and putting it on the playlist? Or is this fame thing something I'm addicted to?"
Perhaps, 'cause you're sure as hell not addicted to producing quality material anymore. Or is this admission of uncertainty simply a smokescreen intended to cover the shite-ness of that new single? Does anyone care?
Nah.

...
All... my life... I've dreamed of hearing these words...
...I... I don't know what to think...
I'm just... so... HAPPY!
-
-
As much as I'd like him to quit
He won't, This is probably just to drum up some attention.
-
All he has no really is to 'come out'
at some point to ressurect his career - watch this space in say about 2 years!
-
he does have
a bit of a history of that doesn't he? Might as well throw the gay and drug topics out again if he really wants the extra cash..
-
-
-
'robbie to quit music'
please please please let this be true.
-
elton john
threatend this just before releasing the ultimate cash in of that diana crap...
-
Wasn't the Diana thing
for charity?
-
...
If that abomination taught us anything, it's that PR is worth as much, if not more than straight up cash these days.

Translation:
"You can't fire me! I quit!"

i agree
i think this is some sort of robbie attention seeking ploy. unfortunatly i don't think we will ever get rid of him totally. his new single is awful, i thought it was a joke when i heard it.
-
He did say he might never
sing again. Nothing about rapping.
-
.....
seriously. that new single is so far beyond the realms of crap that its teetering like a spinning top on the edge of becoming historically moribund, it may just disappear completely from reality.
-
Yeah but its like hyper-crap
or something. Like, if you channeled crap through a superconductor, this is what would come out. Thus it is totally compelling & awful, like clips of rally cars crashing into big crowds of people stood at the edge of rural roads, in the 70's.
The bit in the 'rap' about TK Maxx is like puke in your nostrils.
-
Best simile ever!
I'm gonna be laughing about that for hours

There is only
one thing that could turn this terrific news into very bad news....
(The Suns Headline in 5/6 years)
"A ROBBIE WILLIAMS COMEBACK TOUR"
I say we just let the cunt make his shit music, continue ignoring him and hope that one day everyone will see him for the worthless spunk bubble that he is.
-
Three words...
Blatant. Publicity. Stunt.
-
Rudebox is fucking great
it has the best lyrics ever.
"tkmaxx is the best(yes)"
Amazing.
-
These PR stunts work
all i wanna do now is go and check out rudebox
-
He has also said
according to the Daily Record, that "The next album's on its way and it's a return to acid house."
He has already written the album after that too, it's based on the
gluesniffing generation. The first track is called Wot? And it's
features a rap by Robbie that goes:"wot wot wot you got
Do you
Got any glue
I hope you do
Cos I like glue
Girls are lovely girls are nice
I have slept with a girl-
Twice.
Wot wot wot you got
Glue glue who are you? Etc. "(to the tune of Last of the summer wine)
-
Ahahahahaha...
Hhahahahahahahahahahaha.
-
-
I bet Guy Chambers...
has got some sort of smug smile on his face right now.
-
Fingers? CHECK.
Toes? CHECK. Arms? CHECK. Eyes. CHECK. Yup, everything crossed. Hope and a FERVENT prayer. I hope he goes away, tries to find some point/happiness and stop flogging his dead horse of a 'talent'.
-
he has never
produced quality material. Ever. And i - as a female - am sick to death of hearing how attractive he is. He isn't. Thank God. This is the best news I have heard for a long, long time. Please make it happen.
-
I'm with you on this one Nicster
I'd rather sew up my own c**t than even look at the guff-stenched buffoon.
-
YES!
Robbie, our saviour, is now going to use his free time to take over at the vale and steamroller us into the premiership! I CAN FEEL IT!
we love you robbie!

aww
i quite like robbie williams, some of his 90s stuff was some of the best pop around at the time, and he does make me chuckle.
c'mon kids, it's not like he's stealing fans from Youthmovie Soundtrack Strategies, eh?
that said, anyone who calls a song "Rudebox", must be at least a little bit a spanner
-
I used to hate him
for his unbearable smugness and then the 'troubled star' angle. Then he grew oin me, and I realised he is a brilliant shopwman and born to perform.
Then I heard Rudebox, terrible terrible attempt at being justin Timberlake.
-
good.
this is the best news in years, even if it is probably bullshit lies. The fact people class him as a "good performer" and all that shite is a sad sign of how low modern entertainment has got. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
-
Feed a monkey with cocaine
and it would be a good performer

Hurrah!
You kind of have to hand it to the guy for managing to make so much money out of tone-deaf saddos, but there comes a time when enough is enough.
I thought that the chorus to 'Advertising Space' was pretty much the only decent thing that he ever wrote, and I'm half expecting to find that this, like so many other passable tunes (by equally crap artists) that have disingenuously been peddled to our largely ignorant population, is actually just another cover version; or else another dirty rip-off like that silly 'Supreme' song, which sounds almost exactly like 'Tragedy' by Gloria Gaynor (the two tunes are identical, with the exception of about one note).
And what's up with all the 'swing' numbers he keeps meddling with...and that bloody silly hair-do...and that daft grin that makes him look like the irritating builder guy fom Coronation Street. Aaaaarrrggghh!
Like I said: fair play to ol' Robbie for making so much cash, etc, but I think we all deserve a nice, permanent holiday from his brand of...erm...music.
-
Oops! I take it back!
Amendment to my last post:
I actually meant that 'Supreme' is a rip-off from 'I Will Survive' by Gloria Gaynor (can't even remember who wrote 'Tragedy').
That'll teach me to be a 'vile nerd'!
-
nice
It would be nice.
But alas his Bloated ego won't allow it.
